Souci Mady...

I was supposed to post this on Father's Day but the video I made was not complete at the time. I would still like to take the time out to thank ALL the fathers out in the world doing God's work by taking care of their children in a hands on capacity. I would like to of course thank my own father, Guy "Mwana Mboka..Mokonzi Ya Rumba" Angrand, for his role in our (my siblings and I) lives.

Thank you Daddy for always being there!! Thank you for giving us this appreciation for music and showing us the power it has to bring people together! Thank you for giving us a great life and continuing to help us through! We love you! You are an inspiration to us all!! WE LOVE YOU! :)

Now with no further ado, here is the video I made for the song Souci Mady that Guy recorded with Pepe Felly's band Les Yatoupas back in the mid 70s. I hope you all enjoy it. PEACE...

Independence Ya Tabou Combo REPLAY

As you all may know by now I am of Congolese and Haitian heritage. Whenever the two cultures combine there rises an excitement within me that I can not contain!



I have posted the video "Jalosie" a while back which is a Tabou Combo song which mixes Kreyol & Lingala in a sort of Soukous/Kompas style. This song was recorded in the early 80s. 30 years later Tabou Combo has decided to reach back to their Congolese Rumba influence and re-make the classic Grand Kalle hit "Independance Cha-Cha" changing the lyrics to the verses to Haitian Kreyol! It is a beautiful remake.

According to www.microfundo.com (you can read full article HERE) they decided to remake the song because many Francophone African countries gained their independence 50 years ago. This is a proper tribute. Enjoy the song and video it is a true blessing, PEACE!

RIP MAYAULA MAYONI

Last week on Wednesday, May 26th we lost another Congolese music legend. Mayuala Mayoni was a composer and guitarist who has written notable hits for Franco & TP OK Jazz ( "Cherie Bondowe", "Nabali Misere", "Momi", etc), Mpongo Love (her smash hit "Ndaya"), Tshala Muana ("Nasi Nabali" which songstress Meje 30 has remade for the Tshala Muana album "Sikila"; I posted the video yesterday) and much more.

Our friends @ Global Groovers have posted his album "La Machine a Tube" for download. You may find it HERE

He was a great talent whose influence spanned decades. He will be missed. May his soul rest. Enjoy these videos in his honor:
